A Game for Every Movie I Watched in 2022
What a stupid idea.
Here's 18 games that correlate to every movie I watched for the first time in 2022 that came out in 2022.
Ranked by how much I liked the movie of course. Also I'm banning direct correlations between franchises as that would be too easy (If I watched a Superman Movie I can't tie it to a Superman game).
Also feel free to suggest your own choices, a lot of these need work imo so some extra options may be greatly appreciated.
Here's a list to the inverse list with movies

18 Games
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
----
Also has that multiverse edge to it, and certainly visits strange locations like the accompanying movie, but I picked these as they match in their themes of handling grief and loss.

Turning Red
----
Turning-into-a-furry-creature core. They don't match in tone like at all but the animal transformation though.

Bullet Train
----
This one is just a gut feeling. I saw the cover for Bullet Train and all the memories I had of it and it just screams Katana ZERO in my head, I cannot deny it this placement.

Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers
----
Both feel lifeless in their execution, completely missing the point of their predecessors in favor of mildly funny gags which gained, at least a few chuckles every now and then.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
----
Sadly enough, this choice doesn't cover the Wakanda side of things, but it does touch on an underwater civilization with corrupted political views so there's that.

Prey
----
I am immediately reminded of the regenerator zombie, the one that chases after you, is invincible, and will kill you swiftly. I also remember using your head to murder it in a very creative way, this game's case being rocket engines.

Everything Everywhere all at Once
----
Definitely has that weird, seemingly multi-dimensional energy, as well as sharing themes of healthy family relationships and achieving one's goals.

Top Gun: Maverick
----
Seeming return-to-forms for the franchises, giving everyone what they really wanted out of this. Cool plane shit.

The Batman
----
I can't believe how hard it is to find a game that exudes what this movie brings to the table, so we'll stick with the play-on-words until I can think of something better.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2
----
Ok now I'm definitely cheating.

No Shark
----
Try as you might, no matter how hard you look, you will never find a shark in this game. Go play Sega Marine Fishing instead.

Kimi

I just think there's a strong correlation here in having both of our protagonists discover that shit has hit the fan through the use of second-hand technological sources.

The Northman
----
Look, the rules stated that I couldn't connect two franchises directly, but I sure as shit can put together two Hamlet clones.

The Menu
----
I'm sure most of the things streamers who played this game cooked up could've passed as dishes in this movie.

Barbarian
----
This one is hilarious because it only makes sense if you've seen the movie, but let's just say the connection is quite literal.

Halloween Ends
----
A complete disaster that capped off a frankly underwhelming trilogy of entries with a wet fart. Embarrassing at best and headache inducing at worst.

Morbius
----
The butt monkeys of their respective industries, so many jokes and memes just from their existence.

Smile
----
The dumbest horror you've ever seen trying to parade itself as this thought-provoking nonsense, how about you go choke on your own cerebrospinal fluid and see if you can taste your overwhelming pretentiousness.
